Tom,
It would be easier for me to keep current report generation than using Word via OLE.
Thanks,
Alex.

Curently my app supports that my generating text file ( instead of using VFP report designer) with embedded codes ( for fonts, etc) ready for WordPerfect macro to produce WP document. I'm trying to use a different approach. Standart VFP :REPORT...ASCCII doesn't seem to work. The question is : does anybody use third-party tools for that ( Crystal, FoxFire, etc) or there exist some workarounds for standart VFP report designer ?
